I have had this burning question for quite some time and no one really had an answer. I called Yahoo and got this answer. You can log into you "wallet" through http://wallet.yahoo.com/ and that is where you can change your billing, contact info etc. but nothing else. It is ONLY used if you are going to purchase something on Yahoo. You can view your purchases there. Now as far as getting credits for listed auctions etc, none of those credits go through your Wallet. It all stays in PayDirect. Now here is the thing that everyone should know. The "free" auctions sellers have been putting up to use up their credits on Yahoo can be looked at differently. When you post an auction, then pay to feature it and you end up getting a winner and selling it, 1/2 of the $amount you paid to have the item listed is "CREDITED" back to your PayDirect account. That credit money can be refunded to the seller. SO YOU SEE THESE FREE AUCTIONS ARE REALLY NOT FREE WHEN USING YOUR CREDITS! The only place to check on your credits and payments in in PayDirect, not your Wallet.
I think the only ones that are free are the Ebay sellers who had their feedback credits applied to their Yahoo account. Maybe someone else can clarify that but I think I am right.

I just posted an auction a little while ago using my feedback transfer credit. It worked, they took the 20 cents out of my credit.
